In the solemn palace, Artolia was sitting lazily on the silver throne. She was leaning sideways and supporting her chin with her left hand. Even so, her smiling face still exuded an indescribable majesty.
He touched the throne with his hand." This seat that represents the supreme authority is now mine. No wonder so many people are crazy about this seat. This feeling of being able to decide the fate of others at will is indeed fascinating.”Artolia couldn't help but think.
Looking at the beautiful maids who had been strictly trained in court etiquette, Altoria felt very happy." So many cute girls. It's great to be king."”
A palace maid was an ancient and noble profession that made the British feel proud. They must have a flawless upbringing, be proficient in dressing, be good at dealing with all kinds of people, and be familiar with etiquette. Women who were not born in a prestigious family could not take on this job.
He remembered that during the reign of King Louis IV, a maid in the palace had given birth to a child with someone else. After this incident, the palace decided that in the future, all the palace maids would be married ladies, and they would live in the palace with their families. After that, following the example of their superiors, the nobles also found noble ladies to be maids. During the reign of Louis IV, France was in its heyday, and European countries followed suit.
Should he say that he was lucky to have transmigrated to King Arthur's era? Even the maids were still pink fungus. Artolia had no love for other people's wives!
......
Strolling on the streets of Camelot City, Altoria smiled gently and nodded in response to the residents who bowed to her respectfully. However, the natural majesty she exuded made the people around her too close. She would not make the same mistake as in the original novel, to be aloof and distant from the people.
Artolia, who came from the modern world, understood the importance of the people's hearts. The monarch was like a boat, and the people were like water. Water could carry a boat, but it could also capsize it. Of course, although Artolia would be close to the people, she always paid attention to maintaining her dignity. She couldn't laugh or curse in front of the people. If her emotions were seen through, how could she be qualified to lead others? As a king, you must at least make the people feel that you are reliable and can give them a sense of security.
She was a king as an ordinary human. She was not aloof and did not leave the world. She held the feelings of a normal person and was with the people, listening to the voices of the people. Of course, when she was gentle, she was like the sun. But when she was dignified, she could melt the wings of those who wanted to get close to the sun.
Soon after she ascended the throne, Artolia issued several decrees, which abolished the first (harmonious) night power of the nobles and many other regulations that oppressed the people. She also raised the status of the knights, making them equal to the nobles. All the knights were directly loyal to the king, which indirectly weakened the military power of the hereditary nobles.
However, Altolia did not force them too much. The hereditary nobles had been in power for many years, and they needed to take things slowly like boiling frogs in warm water.
Abruptly, Altolia stopped because she saw a young girl. The young girl had long, light golden hair, and a blue butterfly hairpin in her hair. There was a faint mocking smile on her delicate face, and her deep, starry eyes were filled with confusion.
This was a very beautiful woman, not inferior to Artolia. If Artolia was pure and holy like an angel who had fallen from the mortal world, then she was like an elf who was wandering in the mortal world. The two of them were equally breathtakingly beautiful. Similarly, they did not belong to this turbid world.
Guinevere's emotions were complicated. The Sage Merlin had prophesied that the Daughter of Camilla would become the Queen of the Empire.
This was the fate of the girl named Grunevere. She was not willing to submit to fate and marry someone she did not know just because of a prophecy, so she came to Camelot to meet her future husband.
But when she came to Camelot, she found out that the person who pulled out the King-Choosing Sword was actually a woman. This woman named Altoria had already become King Arthur. Now that the King of Britain was a woman, it would be a taboo to follow the prophecy.
"Are you kidding me? The prophecy must be wrong!”Guinevere murmured to herself. At this moment, she felt a burning sensation. She turned her head and saw a girl wearing a golden crown. The young girl was wearing silver armor and a dark blue petticoat. The majestic and heroic aura on her body became even more intense under the contrast of the silver armor. She was like a pure white sun, making people submit to her. They lowered their heads and kowtowed, unable to look directly at her light.
"King Arthur, Artoria." Seeing the crown on the girl's head, Guinevere understood her identity and was at a loss.
"Beautiful lady, what is your name?”Artolia stared at her, and the affection in her eyes was obvious.
"My name is Guinevere." Guinevere couldn't help but lower her eyes, not daring to look at Artoria's affectionate eyes.
What was with that look? Did King Arthur like women? Guinevere thought anxiously.
After finding out Guinevere's identity, Artoria brought her to the palace, where Guinevere lived, half by force and half by her own will.
On this day, Artolia came to the garden behind the palace and saw Guinevere sitting on a stone chair, thinking about something. A playful smile appeared on Altoria's face. She walked up to her and hugged her.
"Guinevere, what are you thinking about?”Artoria said as she rested her head on Guinevere's shoulder.
"That, that, everything." Gwyneth blushed and didn't know what to do. She stuttered for a while but still couldn't say anything. She seemed to be very dissatisfied with her performance. Gwyneth took a deep breath and adjusted her attitude. She regained her usual elegant temperament and said to the girl seriously,"Not good, Artolia!"
" Erm," Altoria's premonition was getting worse when she saw the princess, who was usually a bad-tempered princess, talking so seriously." Did something happen, Guinevere?"”
"Something big? "Yes, it's a big deal. Yes, it's a big deal," Guinevere said in a serious manner.
"Then what is it, Guinevere?”Seeing that the other party could not get to the point, even Altoria became anxious.
" Ah... it's... it's just..." Guinevere, who had calmed down with great difficulty, could not help but panic again after being shouted at by the girl.
" You... you can read it yourself." Gwyneth put the letter on the table into Altoria's hand shyly and turned her head away, but her eyes kept glancing back at the girl.
" What?" Altoria took the letter from Grunavril." Is it a letter from King Camilla?"”The girl was stunned when she saw the name on the envelope. She looked up at Gwynevelle in confusion, as if she did not understand why the royal father of the princess would write to her.
" You…Why are you looking at me? This is what my father wants. Open it and you'll see," Guinevere said unhappily when she saw the girl's eyes.
Hearing this, Altolia did not hesitate. She took the letter out of the envelope, opened it, and read it carefully.
"Respected Great Britain Empire, King Arthur, Your Majesty:
The Imperial Advisor of the Mon Empire, the Great Sage Merlin, has received the will of the Lord and the prophecy of the heavens. My daughter, Princess Gwynevelle of the Kingdom of Camela, will be the Empress of the Empire. Since the death of the late King Uther, England has fallen apart. Although we have the desire to maintain the glory of the Empire, we have always been unable to do so. I am grateful for the kindness of the previous king and dare not associate myself with thieves like Lu. I also always remember the prophecy of the national teacher and defend one side, waiting for the king to arrive.
They waited for ten years, and His Majesty would appear, pull out the sword of the king, prove the name of the king, quell the rebellion of the thieves, and unify England. Destroy the afterglow of Wales, exterminate the invading troops of the Eastern Roman Empire, fight the cavalry of Francia, and take over the isolated city of Scottish Empire. Britain, Iceland, and the Twin Islands will all return to the royal land. Arthur's name will shock Europe!
My daughter is not talented, but she can accompany Your Majesty. Although Your Majesty is also a woman, her ancestor is the king of the empire. How can the king's body be different because of his nature? There is also the prophecy of the national teacher. This is the will of the heavens. Even if it is an ethical taboo, it can be forgiven. This matter should be resolved quickly and cannot be delayed. After thinking for a long time, I have decided to go to London to prepare for Your Majesty's wedding. I hope Your Majesty will follow the will of the Lord and choose a good day to carry out this prophecy. In this way, with Your Majesty's shrewdness and divine martial arts and the grace of the heavens, the hegemony of Great Britain can be achieved!
May Your Majesty live a long life and the empire prosper.
Yours sincerely, Camilla."
After reading the letter, Artolia was a little flustered." Gruneaville, this is…" Artolia was stunned. After a long while, she looked at Gruneaville in bewilderment. She looked exactly like the princess just now. This was not surprising. Although the young girl had experienced countless strange things in the world and stood at the peak of power, her body and mind were no longer comparable to the youth in her previous life. However, marriage was indeed something that had never happened before. Even if she had lived two lives, the young girl had never experienced any love. She could not help but panic when she suddenly faced marriage.
" You're so long-winded. I didn't know that my father would be so anxious. I won't marry you," Guinevere said with a red face.
Artoria looked at Guinevere lovingly and hugged her tightly in her arms. Two equally beautiful girls, two people who leaned on each other, hugged each other tightly.
" I said, will you marry me, Guinevere?"" Yes." Altoria's proposal received a subtle response.
